Former Southampton interim head coach Kelvin Davis has revealed the entire coaching crew are excited about working with Ralph Hassenhuttl.

Davis was in charge of the Southampton’s 3-1 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley, as Hassenhuttl watched from a distance at Wembley.

Davis, who represented Southampton on 300 separate occasions, will join Hasenhuttl’s coaching staff and thinks the the Austrian tactician will have a positive impact.

“We met at the hotel after lunch, he was very concise with his information, very honest and to the point with what he wanted and how he wants to work,” Davis said, according to Daily Mail.

The Saints were defeated 2-1 by Cardiff City in the English Premier League, leaving them in the bottom three of the table.

“Generally a good feel to him. He is very keen to come in and improve us as a group.”

“He wants to join our football club, which is fantastic with the pedigree he has got, so we are looking forward to getting started.”

“He only addressed the coaching staff, he didn’t address the players.”

“It was quite simple, how he likes to play the game, how he likes his sessions to be planned, how he watches opposition and what he expects from standards and people around him. There was no grey area.”
